We had a great time.Pia is a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome. She told us a lot about sustainability and her project. It is inspiring, how passionate she is about her project. The work was good, we had fun working in the greenhouse or in construction and Pia always made sure we didn't work too much. In our free time we did various activities in the amazing nature of Melimoyu. The house was cozy and made us feel at home instantly. We always had lunch and dinner - a good way to get to know each other. We really enjoyed our time with Pia, her family and the other volunteers.

Melimoyu is really a special place. Getting to know the area and the people who work so hard to make a life in such a harsh environment was amazing. Make sure to learn about how the place was settled and the people involved in the story. Pia is the best host! Hopefully I will be able to return to Melimoyu again! Really unique project here, proud to have helped contribute a tiny bit.

Melimoyu tiene vistas hermosas e inigalables, dentro del voluntariado nuestro trabajo fue apoyar en los domos en la parte electrica, los horarios fueron flexibles y gratos, varias veces nos transportamos en bici o en la camioneta por la ruta. Ademas la comida fue una delicia, la mayoria cultivada de ahí mismo y aparte se realizaban diversos tipos de practicas eco-sustentables, cuidando al medio ambiente. Muchas gracias por esta expiriencia.

Venir a Melimoyu es una experiencia inigualable, comenzando con la vista hermosa al llegar en barcaza, luego los bosques que posee hasta la vista al volcan qué es realmente hermoso, se logra conectar realmente con la naturaleza. También mencionar el buen trato que hay desde la anfitriona hasta los voluntarios, muy hermoso el ambiente que se produce, muchos momentos memorables, y mucha comida rica, me llevo lo mejor de este lugar, agradecer todos los momentos y el enriquecedor conocimiento que aprendí viviendo en Melimoyu, muy recomendado, sin duda, muy agradecido de este maravilloso lugar.
